The (ESC) “3” CHR$(n) command sets the line spacing in in- crements of l/180 inch. Change line 40 in your program to this:

40 LPRINT CHR$(27);"3";CHR$(I);

and run the program again. Now the results will look like this:

The program works just the same as before, but the line spac- ings are just one-third what they were. This is because (ESC) “3” CHR$(n) sets the line spacing to n/180 inch.

Now, let’s consider the IBM modes. When you run the first program with the IBM modes, you cannot change the line spac- ing. The (ESC) “A” CHR$(n) command in the IBM modes only defines the line spacing; the (ESC) “2” command changes the line spacing to the amount defined by the previous (ESC) “A”

For the IBM modes, you need to change the following lines in the first program as shown below:

40 LPRINT CHR$(27);"A";CHR$(I);CHR$(27);"2";

80 LPRINT CHR$(27);"A";CHR$(12);cHRs(27);"2"
